I posted this in a thread, but I felt it is important enough to share on my blog. I understand that a majority of the users on here are younger than me and value socializing and interaction more than I do, so here's a tip if you're a youngin' and are feeling down on how you're interacting around here.

I don't feel a thing. Status updates get bumped off the first page pretty quickly because there's so many active users.

 

I feel that being ignored either through status updates, not getting brohoofs, and not being quoted is becoming a recurring theme around here lately. Yeah I may one of the old geezers here with some popularity behind me, but don't let yourselves get down if you aren't getting any interaction. I've lurked the past 8 months or so and I hardly see members I used to talk to a lot back in the day so I'm kinda regaining my footing around here and seeing some new faces.

 

Best way to get some interaction is to be proactive and put yourself out there first and you post and quote others and give brohoofs. Don't be a wallflower and wait for action. It's a busy board and people might intend to interact with you but then get sidetracked by a new post or status. Be the change you want to see in the forums
